Component mounting machine and component mounting method

A component mounting machine comprising:

• a component supply device including a bulk feeder configured to supply multiple components in a bulk state, and a tape feeder configured to feed and move a carrier tape accommodating the same type of components as the bulk feeder to supply the components;
• a mounting control section configured to execute a mounting process based on a control program in which an execution order of a PP cycle including a collection operation of the components and a mounting operation of mounting the components on a board is set;
• and
• a supply control section configured to, when the collectable quantity of components in the bulk feeder is less than a reference value, cause the bulk feeder to execute a supply operation of the components in parallel with the PP cycle,
• wherein the mounting control section is configured to, when executing the collection operation, switch a collection target to the components supplied by the tape feeder when waiting time for waiting for completion of the supply operation of the components by the bulk feeder occurs.

A component mounting method comprising:

• a mounting control step of executing a mounting process based on a control program in which an execution order of a PP cycle including a collection operation of components and a mounting operation of mounting the components on a board is set;
• a supply control step of causing, when the collectable quantity of components in a bulk feeder configured to supply multiple components in a bulk state is less than a reference value, the bulk feeder to execute a supply operation of the components in parallel to a mounting cycle in which the mounting operation is repeated multiple times;
• and
• an order adjustment step of adjusting, when a required time for the mounting cycle scheduled to be executed in parallel with the next supply operation scheduled based on the current collectable quantity is shorter than a required time for the supply operation, an execution order of the PP cycle including the mounting cycle.
